Natural aging can have consequences on the sagging of the skin on the thighs, mainly due to the accumulation of fat, against which sports exercises are most often difficult to control. Significant weight loss can also lead to excess skin.

This important aspect is always discussed beforehand with the surgeon during consultations, who can offer you the UrgoTouch ® laser treatment to reduce them. Often associated with liposuction, a thigh lift surgery consists of removing excess skin and fat and tightening the skin of the thighs. There are 3 techniques (vertical, horizontal or mixed), depending on the location and the excess skin or fat to be removed.
The surgery involves scars. This important aspect is always brought up with the surgeon during consultations who may advise you the UrgoTouch ® laser scar treatment to optimise the scar healing process. It will be performed at the very end of the surgery.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row heading_color=”primary-2″ bg_type=”gradient” bg_gradient_color_1=”#dcc7b9″ bg_gradient_color_2=”#fce3d6″ bg_gradient_direction=”135″ padding_top_multiplier=”3x” padding_bottom_multiplier=”5x” columns_gap=”60″ separator_top_size=”60px” separator_bottom=”curve-left-separator”][vc_column][movedo_title heading_tag=”h2″ heading=”h1″ line_type=”line” align=”center”]Learn more about the operation[/movedo_title][movedo_empty_space][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/3″][movedo_single_image image_mode=”large” image=”11965″ animation=”grve-fade-in-up” el_class=”pictobg”][movedo_empty_space][movedo_title line_type=”line” line_height=”1″ line_color=”white” align=”center” animation=”grve-fade-in-up”]THE OPERATION[/movedo_title][movedo_empty_space][vc_column_text animation=”grve-fade-in-up”]
